Hp 5890 series 2 gas chromatograph

Manufactured by Hewlett-Packard
Sourced in Germany, United States

The HP 5890 series II Gas Chromatograph is a laboratory instrument designed for the analysis and separation of complex chemical mixtures. It functions by utilizing a carrier gas to transport the sample through a heated column, where the individual components are separated based on their physical and chemical properties. The separated components are then detected and quantified by the instrument's detection system.

Ethanol Concentration Analysis Protocol

On P73 or 93, animals were again injected i.p. with their assigned training dose, and left undisturbed in their homecage until they were euthanized via decapitation for assessment of BECs 30 min post-injection. Trunk blood and brains were collected and maintained at −80 °C until analysis. Blood ethanol concentrations (BEC) were assessed via headspace gas chromatography using a Hewlett Packard (HP) 5890 series II Gas Chromatograph (GC) (Wilmington, DE) and procedures in standard use in our laboratory (e.g. see Willey et al., 2012 (link)).

Ethanol Consumption and Blood Sampling

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
On intake days 6 and 14, immediately after the completion of the drinking session, approximately 30µl of blood were collected from each animal via lateral tail vein incision. These days for sample collection were chosen based on unpublished pilot data from our lab showing that by intake day 6, ethanol consumption had generally reached notable levels, with intake tending to decline after day 14.
Immediately following collection, the blood was frozen at −80°C, and later assayed for blood ethanol concentrations (BECs) via headspace gas chromatography, using a Hewlett Packard (HP) 5890 series II Gas Chromatograph (GC) (Wilmington, DE) and standard procedures in our laboratory (e.g., see Ramirez and Spear, 2010 ). All animals had blood samples taken, regardless of whether their solution contained ethanol or not, to equate experience across animals, although samples from non-ethanol-drinking animals were not analyzed.

Measuring Maternal Blood Ethanol Levels

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Maternal blood ethanol concentrations (BECs) were determined in trunk blood samples collected at various time points (30, 125, 240, and 480 min) following the first injection of ethanol on G12 (n = 3 pregnant females/time point). Animals were decapitated, and blood samples were collected in heparinized tubes, rapidly frozen, and maintained at −80°C until analysis of BECs. Samples were assessed for BEC via headspace gas chromatography using a Hewlett Packard (HP) 5890 series II Gas Chromatograph (Wilmington, DE). At the time of assay, blood samples were thawed and 25 μl aliquots were placed in airtight vials. Vials were placed in a HP 7694E Auto-Sampler, which heated each individual vial for 8 min, and then extracted and injected a 1.0 ml sample of the gas headspace into the gas chromatograph. Ethanol concentrations in each sample were determined using HP Chemstation software, which compares the peak area under the curve in each sample with those of standard curves derived from reference standard solutions.

Our CIE procedure was described in our recent publication (Shan, Galaj, & Ma, 2019 (link)). Briefly, adolescent (“Ado”, P28-P47 or adult “Adu”, P70-P89) rats received 4.0 g/kg intragastric (IG) administration of 25% (v/v) ethanol (CIE) or equivalent volume of water (CIW) once per day at approximately 9:00 AM in a 3-day on and 2-day off pattern as one cycle, repeated 4 times in total. Blood ethanol concentrations were assessed via headspace gas chromatography using a Hewlett Packard (HP) 5890 series II Gas Chromatograph (Wilmington, DE). Our data show that, Ado::CIE and Adu::CIE resulted in similar increases of BECs by the end of cycle 2 (in mg/dL: Ado::CIW, 13.5±0.6; Adu::CIW, 12.2±0.5; Ado::CIE, 170.2±9.1; Adu::CIE, 166.3±12.3; two-way ANOVA showed Ado/Adu × CIW/CIE interaction F1,20=0.7, p=0.31, Ado/Adu F1,20=1.7, p=0.20, although CIW/CIE F1,20=43.2, p<0.01) and cycle 4 (in mg/dL: Ado::CIW, 11.1±0.9; Adu::CIW, 11.2±0.9; Ado::CIE, 194.7±13.1; Adu::CIE, 184.1±11.4; two-way ANOVA showed Ado/Adu × CIW/CIE interaction F1,20=0.8, p=0.37, Ado/Adu F1,20=1.5, p=0.24, although CIW/CIE F1,20=41.0, p<0.01), similar to our previous publication (Shan et al., 2019 (link)). These concentrations are in the binge range (defined as >80 mg/dL by the NIAAA). In addition, more details about the experimental procedure are available in Fig. 1A.

GC-FID Analysis of Fatty Acids in Tissues

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
HP-5890 (series II) gas chromatograph (Hewlett-Packard, Palo Alto, CA) coupled with a flame ionization detector was employed to quantify fatty acids. An aliquot of fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) from each sample was injected onto a DB-FFAP fused silica capillary column (30 m × 0.25 mm i.d. × 0.25 µm, J&W Scientific, Folsom, CA) through a split/splitless inlet (50:1). The oven temperature was programmed as previously reported [22 (link)]. A reference standard GLC-462 containing 28 fatty acid methyl esters was used to identify the retention time of FAME peaks on GC chromatograms. PUFA in a mixture of adrenal gland, thyroid gland and mandibular lymph nodes (ATL), and bladder were quantified employing gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, negative chemical ionization as reported previously [10 (link)].

For quantitative analyses, 0.1 μg of octadecane was added as an internal standard to each of the eluted fruit odor samples collected by dynamic headspace adsorption (see above). All samples were analyzed with an HP5890 Series II gas chromatograph (Hewlett-Packard, Palo Alto, CA, USA), equipped with a DB5 capillary column (30 m × 0.25 mm i.d.) that used hydrogen as the carrier gas (2 ml min−1 constant flow). One microliter of each sample was injected splitless at 40°C. After 1 min, the split valve was opened and the temperature increased by 4°C min−1 until reaching a temperature of 300°C. GC/MS analyses were carried out on an HP 6890 Series GC connected to an HP 5973 mass selective detector (Hewlett-Packard) fitted with a BPX5 fused-silica column (25 m, 0.22 mm i.d., 0.25 μm film thick, SGE). Mass spectra (70 eV) were recorded in full scan mode. Retention indices were calculated from a homolog series of n-alkanes. Structural assignments were based on comparison of analytical data obtained with natural products and data reported in the literature [6 (link), 26 (link), 34 ], and those of synthetic reference compounds. Structures of identified candidate compounds were verified by co-injection.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
